Your question is open-ended. You should be more specific and ask: 1) Is Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, etc.) already INSTALLED? Note: There IS A Difference between "Installed" and "Free". MS Office, most always, comes Preinstalled on a new Laptop/Computer with a "Free TRIAL" period, usu. 30-days, where the installed OS (Operating System) is WINDOWS. The idea is to steer the customer to Conveniently purchased the ALREADY Installed Office Suite. 2) Is the Cost of Microsoft Office ALREADY INCLUDED in the laptop purchase price? Note: Rarely, if ever, is MS Office "FREE" out right, no additional install fees/costs. Most Always, it IS Conveniently Installed. 3) Keep in mind, there are 2 Main Options when purchasing MS Office: "The two main options for purchasing Microsoft Office are a ONE-TIME Purchase of Office 2024 -OR- a SUBSCRIPTION to Microsoft 365. Office 2024: A one-time purchase that includes the classic Office apps like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. It's available for PC or Mac, but Does NOT include the services that come with a Microsoft 365 subscription. Microsoft 365: A Subscription-Based Service that includes the Office applications, cloud storage, and other features. You can pay for Microsoft 365 Monthly -OR- Yearly, and the yearly option offers a discount. You can install Microsoft 365 on multiple devices and sign in to five at the same time. Here are some other differences between Office 2024 and Microsoft 365: -Updates: Microsoft 365 includes regular updates, while Office 2024 is a one-time purchase and doesn't include future updates. Cloud storage: Microsoft 365 includes cloud storage with -OneDrive. Licensing: Office 2024 licenses are for one device, while Microsoft 365 licenses can vary in price depending on the number of users and apps covered. -Cost: Office 2024 is a one-time purchase, while Microsoft 365 is a subscription service. -Sharing: Microsoft 365 Family can be shared with up to six people."

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hey, Linds. Microsoft Office is built-in to the Windows 11 operating system with the apps preinstalled; however, without purchasing a long-term Office solution, such as Microsoft 365, only a 30-day trial can be activated out of the box.
